dumb bunnies

Foolish, clueless people

Dumb bunnies is a mild, often affectionate term for foolish or naive people.

The phrase softens criticism through its childish imagery—bunnies being cute and harmless: Those dumb bunnies locked themselves out again.

It can be self-deprecating: We were such dumb bunnies to believe him.
